The Haute-Route is one of the most challenging and extreme mountain bike tours in Switzerland. Most of the ascents have to be tackled on foot, while the descents ride along technically demanding single trails. The route is as tough as it is impressive: The impressive Valais Alps with their mighty glaciers form the backdrop over the four days.

The Portail de Fully is one of the biggest singletrail highlights in Valais. The spectacular transition lies steeply above Martigny and promises an incredible high-altitude trail and an endless trail descent.

The tour to the Col de Mille is one of the best mountain bike routes in Verbier. If you combine it with the descent from Les Ruinettes into the Val de Bagnes, the route becomes a singletrail highlight.

The circumnavigation of Mont Blanc is one of the most impressive multi-day tours in the Alps. The route is characterized by the unique backdrop of the Mont Blanc massif with its huge rock towers and imposing glaciers.

The Pierre Avoi is the name of the rock tower that stands high above Verbier at the entrance to the Val de Bagnes. It is the starting point of the fantastic singletrail descent to Martigny.

On the opposite side of the valley from Verbier, there are endless single trails. The descent from the Col de Mille is one of the longest and best.

The Col Ferret is a well-known crossing from Valais into the Aosta Valley. However, it is also an excellent singletrail circular tour on the Swiss side. Trail fun in front of a stunning Mont Blanc backdrop is the order of the day.

The imposing Grand Combin may be somewhat overshadowed by Mont Blanc, but its circumnavigation by mountain bike is one of the best multi-day tours in the Alps. The two-day program includes classics such as the Fenêtre Durand, the Col Malatra and the Grand Col Ferret. The tour is a superlative in terms of trails and scenery.

The plateau of the Lacs de Fenêtre is a natural spectacle at the very back of the Val Ferret. They can be reached by bike from the south side and can be combined with an enormously long descent through the entire Val Ferret.

Verbier offers countless singletrail options in a small area, which are made easier by the mountain railway transport. The tour from Col des Vaux via La Tsoumaz to Le Châble offers first-class downhill fun.

The Tour du Grand Combin is a superlative in terms of trails and scenery. The imposing Grand Combin may be somewhat overshadowed by Mont Blanc, but its circumnavigation by mountain bike is one of the best multi-day tours in the Alps. The three-day program includes classics such as the Col de Mille, the Fenêtre Durand including Mont Avril, the Col Malatra and the Grand Col Ferret.

The Mont-Fort route is a classic among enduro tours and was once one of the first official mountain bike offers with integrated mountain railway transport.

The single trail tour high above Saxon promises trail adventures on old irrigation channels and downhill fun on fast single trails.

The Tour du Verbier is the freeride circuit of Verbier. Fast, tricky and steep trails alternate with fast and flowing passages. The mountain railroads are used for the ascent.

Lac de Mauvoisin is nestled in the wild and romantic landscape at the foot of the Grand Combin. The SAC hut is the perfect destination for a mountain bike tour.

The Haute Cime (3258 meters above sea level) is the highest point of the famous Dents du Midi high above Martigny and a well-known alpine hiking route. The mountain is considered an insider tip among mountain bikers, but riders with excellent riding skills and a flair for bike mountaineering will get their money's worth here. Partly because of the 3000-metre descent.

The Col du Jorat lies high above Martigny at the foot of the Dents du Midi. It is a well-known destination for less technically experienced mountain bikers who have plenty of strength in their thighs. The ascent road is mercilessly steep.

Chamonix is known for its magnificent scenery thanks to the Monta Blanc massif. One of the most impressive places is the Tête de Balme on the Swiss border. A highlight for mountain bikers thanks to the long descent down to Martigny.

The Mont de l'Arpille is an exclusive panoramic mountain high above Martigny with a perfect view of the Mont Blanc massif. The ascent is also worthwhile on a mountain bike because of the descent on the north side.

Mont Avril stands in the shadow of the Grand Combin. With its 3347 meters altitude and spectacular summit flank, it is a mountain bike adventure in a class of its own. The ascent from the Swiss side impresses with its long and fun 2500-metre descent to Le Châble near Verbier.

Lac d'Emosson is nestled in fantastic high alpine surroundings. The ascent of the Cheval Blanc makes for a challenging but exceptionally impressive tour starting in Martigny.

The panoramic tour from Verbier via Ruinettes to Le Châble with excellent views of Mont Blanc offers well-deserved downhill fun.

No pain, no gain! If you want to experience the sensational view at the Croix de Javerne and the superb descent down to St-Maurice, you need good leathers and strong calves. But the effort is worth it - the route is a highlight in the Monthey region.

The Six Blanc is the panoramic mountain between the Val de Bagnes and the Val d'Entremont. The entire length of this spectacular singletrail tour is for trained experts, but can be shortened as desired.

The Alp Rionda lies 1700 meters above the Rhône Valley at the foot of the Dents de Morcles. A small road rides up the mountain and a single trail leads downhill. The best conditions for a great mountain bike tour with views of the Dents du Midi and Mont Blanc.

At the point where the cog railroad from Martigny struggles up the wild valley and the Trient stream has carved a deep gorge into the landscape, you will find one of the most extraordinary mountain bike trails with the Route des diligences at the end. The historic stagecoach route winds its way down into the valley with 43 bends.

The Col de Mille is one of the best-known mountain bike tours in the Val de Bagnes. It is just as attractive and full of fun single trails from the west side of the Val d'Entremont, starting in Orsières.

If you want to ride over the Grand Saint Bernard into the Aosta Valley, you'll ride past Orsières. However, there is a great singletrail tour hidden here at Plan Monnay. Those who like fast, steep and narrow forest trails will get their money's worth here.

The tour over the Col du Bastillon is located on the well-known route along the Lacs de Fenêtre, and yet the mountain crossing has long received little attention as a mountain bike route. With relatively little effort, you can enjoy a great descent from the Col du Bastillon to Bourg-St-Pierre.

The Portail de Fully is an old acquaintance among mountain bikers. On the same mountain but in the other direction, there is another little-known crossing below the Pointe de Bésery, which is hard to beat in terms of panoramic views and downhill fun.

The Portail de Fully is one of the most famous bike tours in Switzerland. This version of the route is a slightly shorter, but even steeper and crisper version of the original.

The tour text and details of this route are currently being prepared and will be published shortly.
